| 275388 | 2004-10-08 03:32:00 | Could you explain what the relevance of the G++ is? Also, is it simply a question of locating this module and installing it, or should I be looking for a more recent version of Mandrake (I've installed 10.0, which I would have thought was pretty up to date ...). Any help on this, or experiences from anyone who has installed a wireless card under Mandrake would be much appreciated! Thanks |

| 275389 | 2004-10-09 09:43:00 | G++ is a C compiler for Linux. Because you are compiling programs from source, the machine is looking for a C compiler and not finding ones, so you cannot install programs from source (eg: you can only install by RPM). You can download the G++ installer for Mandrake 10 Here (ftp://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/Mandrakelinux/devel/10.1/i586/media/main/gcc-c++-3.4.1-3mdk.i586.rpm). Once that is done you should be able to follow the rest of the instructions previously mentioned and get your NIC working once and for all. Sorry about the problems you've been having with this - I swear usually it's straightforward and simple. Anyway it appears the Mandrake guys are aware of the problem (see here (qa.mandrakesoft.com)) so yeah. Must've just been a development problem that never got found out until too late. |
